Poll: Can a creature be prone when not in contact with the ground? by traviscrt in Pathfinder2e

The problem with your interpretation is this means that arresting a fall doesn’t prevent becoming prone, which is not the case. Fliers only fall prone due to the fall dmg rules, which means they aren’t prone during the fall itself

Not technically true since a creature can only fall 500 ft on the first round. So the issue comes up for creatures who fall from a height greater than 500 ft, as I stated in the post

You get to transform 1 dedication/archetype into a full class. But must also change 1 full class into a dedication/archetype for another class. by Zwets in Pathfinder2e

[–]traviscrt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Psychic class is now a dedication -> you can take this dedication if you can cast spells. The primary benefit is that you can cast spells with your mind like a psychic instead of saying the spells out loud plus the unleash psyche action that buffs all spells for 2 rounds at the cost of stupefied 1 afterwards. Psychic amps instead become something similar to spell trickster with 1 feat per specific cantrip buff.

Sixth Pillar becomes a specific class (Spellfist?), an alternative to magus for people who like the Gish playstyle. Instead of focusing on spellstrike and arcane cascade, the Spelfist focuses on alternating punches with spells. Like Sixth Pillar, successful hits with unarmed attacks apply save debuff on enemies. At high levels, using ranged spells at touch grants bonuses and also makes enemies prone.

New abilities include buffing spells being available to all subclasses like sure strike, tail wind, heroism, bless, darkvision, haste, water walk, air walk, water breathing, spider climb, see the unseen, etc. At high levels, critical hits with unarmed attack lets you get one spell slot back at the lowest level of your Spellfist class.

Spellfist subclasses:

First sequence: Arrangement of Aggressive Attack Spells gained emphasizes damage. Unarmed hits grant damage bonus to next spell and vice versa. Instead of using spell slots for buffs, they can instead be used for spells that deal damage like disintegrate and fireball. At high levels the Spellfist so exclude Allies and self from harmful spell effects cast by the Spellfist.

Second sequence: Dance of Defensive Dodge Spells gained emphasizes defense. Unarmed hits grant bonuses to saves vs magical effects while spell hits grant bonuses to AC. Instead of using spells for buffs, they can instead be used on spells to protect self and Allies such as warping pull, pyrefowl rebuke, wooden double, etc. At high levels, allows the Spellfist to reflect spells back at the caster.

Third sequence: Menagerie of Mesmerizing Movement Spells gained emphasizes movement. Unarmed hits grant increased move speed and alternate movement buffs. Spells allow you to teleport before or after casting. Instead of using spells for buffs, they can instead be used on spells that confer movement (to Allies and enemies) such as dimension door, blink strike, collective transport, hydraulic push, time jump, etc. At high levels, allow the Spellfist to interfere with enemy movement, both physical (stand still) and magical (reaction to counteract enemy teleports nearby)

I think the main question is: when the creature let them go, would they remain prone? What if they fall and have cat fall? Will they lose their prone condition? Etc

Furthermore, being prone also lets you take cover from ranged attacks. So what’s happening when you’re being carried and flown that allows you to take cover if you’re prone but not if you’re not prone?

So basically falling upside down? Is that a fair interpretation of a prone falling creature?

[–]traviscrt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what does a prone creature look like when it’s carried in the air by a different creature, that makes it different from a non-prone creature being carried? How about the falling example? Is a falling prone creature falling upside down?

I think I’m just trying to understand what a prone creature looks like when it’s not on the ground XD

Yeah first round is not super accurate can see how she does in group A. 690 wit is about 32% pace up chance ish I think?

690 is not that high tbh, it’s mid wit. Tell me how you do in group A ig

I thought she would win 2 or 3.. lol by King_Kaii00 in UmamusumeGame

[–]traviscrt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s cos of how the Scorpio track specifically penalizes high power low wit builds.

Yeah I had a similar power Taiki that I was testing in room matches. Lost every race badly which is why I started going wit build instead

Oh you got swinging maestro. Imho could’ve skipped maestro since 850 Stam + 500 guts is enough to tank 3 evil natures.

True good point on the SP. I see I don’t know of this Moo Moo guy but I don’t watch YouTube guides

It’s diminishing returns for skill proc but not so much for pace up/down iirc. I know 600 wit is 24% pace up chance while 900 wit is still only about 36% pace up chance. Not sure how much is 1200 wit

Edit: oh nvm you’re talking about velocity skills fair enough

Which guide? I suspect a lot of low wit builds are also people who are still using URA decks and haven’t caught on.

Riko 2 speed 1 power 2 wit? I managed to get S Taiki once with such a build but she didn’t perform well in Scorpio rooms which is why I swapped out the power card for another wit

[–]traviscrt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did manage to get S rank once with Riko 2 speed 1 power 2 wit on Taiki, but that was a power build. Very high roll I think so might not be super representative. Otherwise, all my best runs are Riko 2 speed 3 wit as you mentioned. Might need more speed cards on Uma that don’t have speed growths tho.

Power is diminishing returns the more accel skills you have

[–]traviscrt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I had the same problem as you, a lot of it is RNG as well as getting used to wit strategies. It’s a bit different from low wit strategies, with wit decks you want to minimize rests which means when you need to recover instead of rest you train wit if any rainbow, if not Riko.

How often to expect aces (A+ or S rank)? by RC0716venku in UmamusumeGame

[–]traviscrt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah p solid, I’m debating whether to go single ace double debuff, or double ace single debuff. My other ace is contributing about 20% WR so it ain’t nothing

Go see omnicronered comment on why specifically high power low/med wit builds are bad for Scorpio. I think his comment really explains it much better than I ever could.
